If McCain knows how to catch Bin Laden, why hasn't he told those in power how to do it?

He claims to put country first, but we have to give him the white house before he will tell us how to bring public enemy #1 to justice? How can this be true?

Update:

Sr. Country First, I did not say tell the world. Why not tell the proper authorities? Surely, he has access to Bush/Cheney? Waht is the rub here?

    If it is true that McCain knows how to catch Bin Laden, then he should be found guilty of aiding and abetting him. However, I do not believe he knows how to catch Bin Laden. The Republicans have used 8 years worth of fear tactics, and this is an issue where people want to see him captured. So, he is just telling people what they want to hear. Also, McCain is against any kind of military strike or invasion into Pakistan. He said that he will follow Bin Laden to the gates of hell. However, if the gates of hell are within Pakistan, then I guess Bin Laden would get a free pass. Clearly, McCain has no idea what he is talking about with regard to capturing Bin Laden.

    ok i know i will get thumbsdowns on this but seriously i think both canidates suck. McCain is just another Bush, and with him as president we will probably be in this economic crisis for another 4 years, AND if he dies, Palin takes over. Yea, enough said.

    BUT Obama first of all hasn't as of yet fully explained how this supposed 'PLAN' he has is going to work and bring the economy back to norm. Plus, we have to take into account that he has been friends with politicians or whomever he has worked with who have been corrupt and even put in JAIL.

    But I guess we'll have to wait and see the outcome of everything.. and if our hopes for a stable economy really do come to light.

    When I was in high school, I had a job washing dishes in a restaurant. The garbage disposal got backed up and water wouldn't drain. We tried pouring sulphuric acid in the water, but it still wouldn't go down. So we called a plumber. First thing the plumber does is roll up his sleeve to stick his arm in the water. I told him I wouldn't do that if I were him. But, hey, I was just a dumb dishwasher, what did I know? And he stuck his arm in the water. Several seconds later, he yanked it out in pain. I told him so, but he didn't want to listen.

    Who knows if McCain told Bush & Cheney? Maybe he did, and they just didn't want to listen because they were the White House and McCain was just a Senator and they were so much smarter, ya know?

    He is a liar..he has never put country first look for the videos he made or was on tv shows or at hearings & see for yourself at the site Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain......I can remember as a teenager hearing about the P.O.W's who would not be looked for, that didn't come back & I asked why. I was thinking our country had to do something about this & then I was told it was our country being the obstructionist..I was shocked then I remember being told it was John McCain & he always got what he wanted cause he was a P.O.W. this was so shocking but we have the hearing on tape.

    He knows how with all of his military expirience, nobody including president Bush takes him seriously.

    he's lying anyone who Could do it Would have done it by now. How then is he really putting country first by letting someone like that stay at large just for votes? The truth is he really has no clue!

    Great idea, let's publicize our top secret plans to the entire world. That way our enemies know all our surprises and tactics and they can beat us! Great freaking idea.

    That's something I've wondered ever since he said it the first time. Unless he's got the guy hidden away in one of his many houses, or in the trunk of one of his many cars, he's blowing smoke.

    Everyone knows where he is....no one can get to him

    Osama is in the mountains between Iraq and Iran...problem is, no country can get to him....
